you're the greatest Viviane, and I am sure I am speaking on behalf of the entire board. Well perhaps not.

Personally as I stated in my opinion " fisher person" made a legitimate contribution to this thread. I do not believe she is a troll.

What is a troll?

So you answer "Rebel shows up to be confused by words and there meanings and troll on as well" ( never did you make such comments when I shared your opinion)

So much for a discussion or answering questions that i raised.

So whilst I do not agree with fisherpersons comments, do not say " I iam confused by words" That is a cheap cop out by an ego that prefers inhaling cyanide, than respecting the fresh air and viewpoint of another's opinion.

What ARE the fruits that the JW tree produces?

by TTWSYF in

my brother [the elder] often refers to this line as to 'knowing a tree by it;s fruits'.

so,my question is what are the jw fruits?.

just asking....sincerely.

The Rebel

We'll thank you for that observation " disposable Hero of Hypocricy" and your right " some may get through an entire life in the bOrg benefited ( only because they they KNOW NO better ) I would say it's because they lack knowledge and NO, KNOW better.

But then we all someday should have to look back from the mirror, and the amount of hairspray we put in our hair, has little to do with who we are inside.

In fairness what is a troll?

Has " fisherperson" made a legitimate contribution to this thread?

If so in my opinion she is not a troll.

Everything depends on words and our interpretation of words. Personally I do not agree with her words, but they have produced for me thoughts. Those thoughts I have not slept on but instead allowed challenge my thinking.

Well "disposable hero of hypocrocy " you raise fair points. Personally I would answer your post:-

For some it takes longer for the smoke to clear. Therefore no hangman rope from me to your comment, but I don't see it your way.

The Rebel

p.s The Watchtoer never made me a better man. And I don't thank it for the times it gave me.

New light from GB member David Splane!

by Island Man in

in the latest jw broadcast splane is quoted as saying:.

"suppose there was a man who died 10 minutes before joseph was born.

would he be part of joseph's generation?

The Rebel

Punk in my day rock stars hullusinated on drugs, lost consciousness and expressed themselves in great songs such as " won't get fooled again"

Personally I am not sure what acid our " Rock Star" Splane is on, but I would sure like to try some. It seems to bypass common sence and reality...

the purpose of generation explanation

by poopie in

jw
friends

ok here is my 2 cents they are getting complaints concerning the drum beat that goes we are in the last hour of last min bla bla bla and people are tired and want system to end so if the system is ended sooon then why are there new partakers assuming that most have the actually calling.

so now we have a problem how do we fix it?

simple just say those new annointed are not part of this generation so now if we appoint younger guys to gb not to worry there not a part of this generation.

The Rebel

Blues Brother, the answer you received back from the society makes as much sence as this:-

Dear Brother.

Thank you very much for your sweet letter. You asked for some clarification on the " generation interpretation"

Oh I could give you a big hug! Bless you for your sincere question.

And. having read your simply darling comments about your understanding of " The Generation interpretation" We give you the clarity you ask for:-

Please note the article in " The Watchtower 15th" now has a broader meaning so :-

A) Shouldnt your heart be in your mouth?

B) The excitement! of the latest clarification is something our past generations of brothers would have longed to have knowledge of.

C) The greater understanding we now have, it shows Jehovers blessing.

Still, MUST NOW DASH......

" We send you warm Christian love and best wishes"

" Your brothers in Jehovers service"

p.s we have sent your letter of concern to the elders in your congregation who will happily give a fuller explanation to your questions, in more personal and private surroundings.

Great thread TTWSYF.:- " What ARE the fruits the J.W tree produces?

According to the Kingdom News no 7 :-

"It strengthens families and upholds high MORAL standards"

Personally I would say some words have no MORALS.

So the Moral of my post, whoever allows themselves to believe the Moral system of the watchtower is valid, basically is lacking in Morals.

So to answer your question the fruit the J.W tree produces is whipped and broken souls, with a shallow Moral compass. But they of course don't see it that way.

Geoffrey Jackson's Golden Apple watch INVESTIGATED

by C0ntr013r in

i went through the original footage to get a good look at the watch.. from these pictures we can probably say that it is a apple watch and that it has a golden color.

the color on the pin is black, and the band is white, grey, silvery or beige.. .

the pin is in the exact place for it to be a apple watch.. only apple watch edition have the gold color.

The Rebel

I agree Splash it is " a big deal" but I can't help being filled with mixed emotions on this.

Why?

Because i own 2 expensive watches, and as a witness I wore them. It never came up as a big deal, and ummmmmmm if it did I would answer truthfully one was an inheritance the other I bought from money my Great Aunt left me, because I wanted something always to remember her by.

Maybe I am missing the point, but my issue with the G.B has nothing to do with what suits, ties or watches they wear. I guess I am naive on this matter. But I am glad this issue has become " a big deal" for many as it seems to be opening closed eyes.

Having said that on another post today I wrote:-

" When the G.B appear on their own T.V evangelising show:-

a) The witness persona of the G.B is less mystical and the G.B can be seen for who they are.

b) The witness can clearly see who comes up with the shit they believe.

Oubliettte, the war isn't won on a watch. The watch is a flower that will outlive Autumn and illegality.

You can buy many books on the art of selling. But if you want to make MONEY learn the rules which are:-

a) Talk with the big boys who make decisions.

b) Talk with these " big boys" about watches.

The greatest salesman do that, because it puts them on the purchasers level. Personally I don't think a " Golden apple watch" is a very impressive level, in terms of materialistic success.

I get the point, but seriously who is impressed by a Gold Apple watch?

I think it's an extravagance, but it's not such a big deal. It's not as though we think they live in bed-sits, and only dream about foreign travel is it?
